My posts this week are harking back a month to early August. Joe flew home to Wisconsin from DC for our weekend at Jack’s, and then he stayed a few extra days. The kids and I really enjoyed hanging out with him!
Here’s a couple compromising pictures of Joe riding Uncle Kirk’s tractor from the 1950s.
We took Joe with us to swimming lessons, and one day, we visited the beach and the zoo. Here’s Joe on the carousel. 
Andrew’s riding a caterpillar.
Sylv is on the otter. I love how she gives her mount a kiss when she gets off.
Here’s Joe helping his nephew and niece see the tiger.
One night, we met up with Michael and Tom and Terry and Dad and had ice cream at Michael’s. Then we played at Wingra playground and walked down to the lake.
Everyone got in on the swinging action. Except me. I get sick.
Sylv looks like she’s feeling a bit torn up inside.
Walking down to the water.
What a pretty night!
There’s Dad and kids and bubs on the pier.
You can feel summer ooze out of the image below…
There’s Tom and Joe and Terry enjoying the view. Joe, it was so fun having you visit! Come back soon!
Love the pic of Joe pushing Michael and the close-up on the pier!
